coconut oil by nutiva®

Enjoy this healthy fat with the creamy taste of the tropics. Why is it that baby formulas often include coconut oil as an ingredient? Because coconut is one of the most healthy super foods in the world. Ideal as a high-heat cooking oil, a healthy substitute for shortening in baking, and a "better-than-butter" replacement on bread and veggies.

Not all saturated fat is bad! Coconut oil is cholesterol- and trans fat-free and rich in medium-chain "good fats" that doctors recommend. We suggest three tablespoons of extra-virgin coconut oil a day. To learn more about coconut oil myths, nutrition, and more, visit coconut info.

Taste the difference between Nutiva's Extra-Virgin Organic Coconut Oil, with its light taste, pleasant aroma, and pure white color, and industrialized coconut oil with its bland taste, faint aroma, and off-white color. 

Pure cold pressed coconut oil.

* Other brands utilize heat and fermentation, waiting more than 10 hours between chopping the coconut and pressing the oil, adversely affecting flavor. 

Perfect butter alternative...try it on bread, popcorn and baked potatoes. Excellent oil to use when frying up vegetables.

Can also be used as a natural moisturizer, hair conditioner, eye makeup remover, massage oil, sex lubricant...
